1. Missing from the bathtub curve is a scale, so one
wonders what the areas under the curve for the initial
period is and for the flat part. (Are we talking
1% in 3-months? How about the time scale: 1 year, 5 years,
100 years?

2. As the article touches on, does running at 100 C significantly
affect the total failures during the flat part of the curve
or the lifetime of the product?
 
Geil makes good memory. I had two GB of DDR-2700 from them in my Athlon 64 system. Very stable and overclocked very well for relatively inexpensive memory. I have since gone with Corsair but wasn't real impressed. Unless you buy the expensive Corsair memory it doesn't overclock well in my experience. Their higher end RAM is way overpriced and rarely dips below MSRP. I'd say for the best price\performance I'd go with Crucial or Kingston. Just my two cents.
